Going Global!

Country and Culture Research

Students will make a research book by completing a research graphic organizer for several countries. They will write other facts and add a picture of the flag on a loose leaf sheet behind each graphic organizer. Students can also make a poster that displays facts about one country.

This collection of children’s songs from around the world helps children of
all ages feel a little closer to other cultures. Each song is sung first in the
native language and then again in English-Book and CD.
